MedicalChatbot-HRL

This is the code of a task-oriented dialogue system for automatic diagnosis, where a hierarchical reinforcement learning are implemented as the dialogue policy. The low level RL consists of multi-agents and each agent is the specific policy in terms of a type of disease. While the high level RL is responsible for selecting one of the low level agent or the disease classifier, then the selected agent will interact with patient in this dialogue turn.

The datasets can be downloaded in http://www.sdspeople.fudan.edu.cn/zywei/data/Fudan-Medical-Dialogue2.0

The paper draft is available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.14254

How to run the code

1. download the datasets and unzip this folder in src/data.
2. Using the following command to run the code.

cd src/dialogue_system/run
python run.py --help
